Dec 19, 2012 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Tuesday. Since October 2008 market makers are now required to be on the bid as much as they are on the offer and for like amounts of stock. This Fair Market Making Requirement is designed to prevent market makers from manipulating stock prices. On Tuesday there were 3909 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3872 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2053 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with Abnormal Price Friction (bearish bias) in their stock prices. This means that there was more buying than selling in the stocks and their stock prices dropped. Nexen Inc (NYSE:NXY), Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ), Verizon Communications Inc (NYSE:VZ), Sprint Nextel Corp (NYSE:S), RF MICRO DEVICES, INC. (NASDAQ:RFMD), Ogx Petroleo e Gas Participacoes SA (OTC:OGXPY). To access Friction Factor, Naked Short Data and SqueezeTrigger Prices on all stocks please visit http://www.buyins.net .



Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below: Symbol Change Percent Buy Volume Buy %% Sell Volume Sell %% Net Volume Friction NXY $-0.100 -0.37% 5,957,835 29.75% 4,432,053 22.13% 1,525,782 Abnormal JNJ $-0.150 -0.22% 5,645,202 34.73% 4,016,295 24.71% 1,628,907 Abnormal VZ $-0.240 -0.54% 6,370,766 34.40% 4,359,043 23.54% 2,011,723 Abnormal S $-0.050 -0.90% 14,652,905 39.03% 12,532,762 33.39% 2,120,143 Abnormal RFMD $-0.030 -0.64% 3,058,308 59.14% 2,113,001 40.86% 945,307 Abnormal OGXPY $-0.010 -0.49% 2,726,021 57.63% 2,004,416 42.37% 721,605 Abnormal Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more buying than selling on Tuesday and their stock prices dropped. The Friction Factor displays how many more shares of buying than selling are required to move a stock higher by one cent or how many more shares of selling than buying moves a stock lower by 1 cent.

For example, the chart above shows NXY with 1,525,782 greater shares of buying than selling (NetVol) and the stock price was down $-0.10000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more buying than selling should cause prices to rise.
